Reaktor Ambient Bundle

"Cycles & Spots with an efficient Ambient atmos / sound effects release featuring a superb ensemble instrument for Native Instrument Reaktor. With this you can easily create rhythmic or non-rhythmic atmos or percussive sounds. 128 presets are included and you can insert your own sounds by Drag & Drop to get them totally mangled into something new.

The presets are based on handcrafted loops made especially for this (You can export them via the sample map) and dropping your own sounds over them will have 128 different effects. Of course you can tweak the hell out of these presets without any additional samples. If you want to though, an initial snapshot is given to start your own sound designs from scratch as well. Lot´s of possibilities with this one.

Cycles & Spots return with another superb instrument for Reaktor.

Transform the included loops (Or your own) into modulating abstract soundscapes or rhythms.

Inside you'll find 2 granular samplers and 2 loop samplers.

Choose playback sections of the samples and randomize loop starting points, grain lengths, tuning, volume level, speed and more via knobs and / or by drawing into a modulation field. This brings life to samples & loops as they change over time.

Cycles & Spots crafted another great instrument for Native Instruments Reaktor.

This one consists of 4 granular samplers, each can be manipulated in numerous ways (6 modulation destinations at the same time) and these can be automated over time to create deep abstract Ambient soundscapes, making the 200 implemented original samples unrecognizable.

Reaktor Atmosphere allows to import own samples as well. This instrument is aimed towards touchscreen usability, though it isn't obligatory and can be used in a regular way as well.

C&S deliver another fine Reaktor instrument for Ambient / Experimental productions. It's based on randomizing granular synthesis (2 samplers) and effects to build long evolving soundscapes.

Integrated are 200 samples, 100 of these are synthesizer harmonies/ melodies and the other 100 are field recordings. The latter feature recordings of nature surroundings from different world locations, insects, motorbike engine, chantings, underwater sounds (hydrophone mic), inside-object-sounds (contact mic), wind chimes, water bottles, metal objects, flutes and more.

4 effects are available to enhance the sounds: reverb, delay, stereo grain delay and equalizer. Alltogether the instrument has 17 parameter options to randomize, these are ongoing and make it possible to create ever changing soundcapes.

Cycles & Spots are back at NI Reaktor with Coordinates, an instrument featuring 2 sample players and 4 effects that can be manipulated with 12 LFOs.

256 finest loops are implemented which lead to rhythmic and harmonic output like soundscapes, percussive sequences. So this instrument is good for Ambient and Dance stuff as well.

20 presets are included. Even when just solely using the internal sample(s) untouched great results can be archived and the 12 LFOs bring it to the next level with long ongoing possible modulations. Watch the walkthrough video for more info.

Cycles & Spots are back with another instrument for Native Instruments Reaktor, a poly synth especially handy for Ambient / experimental music productions, useable in other genres as well though.

The main idea behind this synth is modulating the sounds over time, hence the name Motion. This is achieved by influencing the waveforms of oscillator one and two by LFOs. These have various shapes (sinus to random) and can be synced or run freely.

The final icing on the cake is executed by the effects, especially the powerful reverb and delay.

Cycles & Spots present another cool synthesizer for Native Instruments Reaktor, this time additive synthesis will be used in the instrument. This gives you nice sounds and useful as well for more genres. In total 100 presets come with this synth.

The sonic signature can be described as metallic sounding like bells and gongs to spectral sounds but really the sound palette differs from classic presets like bass and pads to percussive elements to experimental sound effects. This synth can be set to polyphonic, monophonic, unison mode and the sounds can be appregiated, too.

Another cool sample masher for Reaktor from Cycles & Spots, this time tailored towards Ambient / soundscapes productions with over 2GB of selected loops. This instrument layers up to 4 samplers (loop players), can offset the playpack positions and add effects and lots of modulations.

Each of the four players has a dedicated modulation matrix with 8 destinations to make the sound feel more alive and mutating over a long time span. For this 3 LFOs with 5 shapes including random ones (brown noise, sample & hold) can be routed to 8 destinations per player. Of course a nice delay and a smooth reverb are implemented as well as a frequency shifter and filters for each player (lopass, bandpass, hipass, notch).

The instrument comes with 10 presets but really you can yourself create easily and quickly many new ones while having a blast.
